All Eyes on Wilson Building

CLINTON — With a pledge to make their project fully local, Wilson Building developers met the Clinton community...the $8.1 million project — adding 32 market-rate apartments and revitalizing a downtown storefront — is as sure a thing as tomorrow’s sunrise.

Project Timeline:

In two weeks, Economic Growth will issue a request for financing proposals from local institutions.

By April, it plans to obtain title of the Wilson building.

Near May, it hopes to commence “light demolition,” cleaning out the building to make room for renovation.

In August, it will issue a request for contractor proposals.

In October, construction will break ground.

Next spring, the corporation will begin to market the property to prospective residents.

And by next fall, the Wilson building will hold its grand opening, showcasing a fully renovated property.

Overall, said Bush Construction president A.J. Loss (also on hand), construction will run 10 to 12 months.
